Brief Summary
|
Patients who visit the Surgery OPD with a toe amputation done atleast 6 months prior, will be invited to participate in this study. Prior to inclusion, informed consent will be obtained from each participant. The study will involve a comprehensive evaluation of both the amputated and normal foot using various parameters. This includes collecting data available in the EMR or Medical Records available with the patient from an outside hospital, as mentioned in the proforma. The foot is then assessed by measuring bilateral foot circumferences, foot posture, range of motion, height of medial arch, contact area of the foot and eversion / valgus at the ankle joint. Pre and post operative plain x rays of the foot, if available (done by the treating physician or outside hospital) will also be assessed. Pressure points will be identified and compared to those of the normal foot using a static podogram. Sensory and motor deficits will be documented. The data collected from these assessments will be compared with those of the contralateral normal foot. |
